Hello Seniors,

It will be good if you mention the designation/profile-offered of the selected candidates, apart from the salary. It would help us know what kinda profile being offerred.
Just to let you know, I am working in a Software Services company with a gross salary of 13L per annum. I have around 7-years of exp. Do you think the program is suitable for me. I am little confused with the mixed responses now.
Arunendra, Ankur, Can you provide your contact detail to my mail id - rahul.vatsayayan@rediffmail.com... I have so many queries but I am not able to get the answers. the posts and information on internet is very vague and I am not getting that confidence to join the course.

Thanks much in advance.

Cheers

Hello Rahul, talking particularly about the IT sector, you will find the maximum junta in class from this sector. And thus the competition as well. With regards to profiles, in the executive program almost everyone has a unique profile and we can firmly say it as we are witnessing in the ongoing placement season, companies differentiating a 5 year IT candidate from another one of the same sector and equal work experience on the basis of his past role and MBA majors. Yours is definitely a niche kind of profile with salary on the higher side. There are some students with the kind of profile like yours in the current batch as well. Unlike a two year program, the salary offered here is after discussion and negotiation between the company and the candidate. If post MBA salary in your case is a big consideration factor, I would suggest you to look at the past numbers that would assist you in the process. The highest package offered over the last 3 years has been in the range of 18 to 19 lacs with some IT candidates of the kind of profile like yours (7+ years of work experience in software) getting around 18 lacs from companies like HCL and ICICI Bank last year. This year, people with the kind of profile like yours are still in process of evaluations and hence can not comment on the monetary aspect till they convert it. The past salaries can act as a reference point for you to chalk out an approximate figure if you join IMT's program. The profiles on offer to these shortlisted candidates are Project Manager, BDM and Assistant VP.

Dear Ankur & Arunendra,

u guys r doing a great job. sincerely appreciate the time and efforts u r putting in.

1).It would be helpful if u can throw some light on the job profiles that r being offered to the current batch.

2).I am in telecom sector having experience in NOC, Project Management and Transmission Planning (all 6years in technical), so how feasible would it be to change my track to say marketing or operations.

3).Hospitality Charges mentioned in fee structure means accommodation and food? Where can we find out other details about hostel? For ex. is it single/twin sharing rooms? What all items we hav to carry (mattress), can candidates keep there vehicle (2/4 wheelers). Class timings.any other details.

Xerox- Pre sales

It is possible to change the track, infect some of the telecom candidates from our batch have given interview for pre sales and other domain.
Rooms are on the twin sharing basis, you have to carry your own mattress, can keep your own vehicle in parking. For initial two term class timing will be 9 to 3 PM with lunch break in between; later on it will depend on who opts which electives.

hello AP,

wud appreciate if u can share the configuration of the lap top one needs to have, and kindly share the amenities we have in the rooms.
I heard that we will have to arrange our own mattress is it true?....

As such there is no specification for the laptop; any basic model will serve your purpose. You will get basic furniture (bed, table, and chair) and internet connection, rest of thing you will have to arrange. Yes, you will have to arrange your own mattress.

Hi Arunendra,

Can you tell us about the no of candidates kept in the wait list. Since the notice period is a critical factor for all experienced candidate, this information will be helpful in deciding the prospects for some of them.

If possible any tentative dates on which teh second list will be out?
Regards,

Neither I am aware of it nor will the admission department disclose this information to me. I guess waiting list will depend upon no. of candidate drop out or do not deposit the first instalment. So I will suggest wait till 5th June which is the last date of first instalment.

Hi Rahul..pls read the multiquoted thread in my post. Do you think "IMT has given calls to everyone who has applied". I just wanted to negate this view hence wrote in the post "think about the people who have not got selected or are in waiting" which you thought to be emotional ..Such posts have been distracting us a lot .
I have been following few of the selected institutes since last 8-9 yrs and have been gathering as much info. as possible before applying to any institute.
I would suggest if you get time to read, pls read this thread & other related ones from the beginning from post#1 .I hope you will get answer to your queries.
Also , the selected candidates have updated the google sheet with their details..you may like to get in touch with someone with similar profile ..Have a chat with him..it might help.

Thanks Friend. Pls share the info to us as well. I have not initiated the exit process yet as I am little confused with the mixed responses. my notice period is for 2-months,so i too want to decide soon. Planning to initiate the exit process on monday.

Hi,

Also can you give suggestions to

Sure friend...I will compile all of them and will share soon. Yesterday, I could get a affirmative response from one of the Alumni of 2009 Batch (He passed out during the recession time, bcos of which he mentioned CTC was not as good as expected...which I guess we can understand).
Pls see the linkedin profiles of candidates passed out from this course- This was suggested by 1 of the seniors and it helped me.
Right now , my objective is to concentrate on exit process from my company and the requirements of this course.

Hello friend,
I agree with your point that we should seek info based on facts and figures.

So your emotional points like 'think about the people who have not got selected' and 'why did you attend PI' etc become irrelevent.

the fact is that on institute website, it was mentioned earlier that it has achieved 100% placement with good salary for exec MBA program. But when we try to get information from other sources(including blogs on pagalguy), we are getting mixed responses.

Now, one fact is the in economic times ranking, IMT is placed at 7th position. But other fact is that this ranking itself is doubtful. Please see the below link
B-School Ranking 2011 by Economic Times - GyanCentral

Fact is that all selected are having exp of more than 5-years. But it does not mean that one should take decision based on emotions that I have more than 5-years of exp and many people have not got selected , so i must join.

In stead we should talk about all positive and negative points. So everybody is aware of all the facts and can take a right decision. I am really confused and so are many. so I would request all to help each other make the right decision, help others with facts, suggest what you feel is right based on factual figures(no emotions pls). I think this is the right forum where seniors are also commenting. So pls put whatever information you find.

Apologies for such a long writing. But I am really confused with the mixed responses and would request people to come up with right conclusion with correct factual figures.


And Yes,answer to your point 3 - to do that permutation/combination we are seeking help and we are trying to get information from others(esp seniors) so that our permutation/combination is based on correct facts.


Cheers

received a hard copy of offer letter (on IMT letterhead) today....

@ arunnus: Friend you seem to be a alumni from SIMSR 2004-06..Can u pls let us know , why u seem to be so interested in IMT-G PGDM Exe thread?

@ crack_1 & @ getkarty : Friend's I think we should be serious enough for getting the right information which will help us in making the right decision!
Also the information we are seeking it should be in terms of facts & figures and not in form of opinions/assumptions/rumours.

Also, I would like to raise below points :
1. Why we have gone ahead with the VI/PI at the first place when u thought that we shouldn't join IMT-G PGDM Exe?.. In my opinion it is not the case bcos we were eagerly waiting for the results posting many queries to seniors and when the result is out a). Few among us are raising some doubts which have been already addressed in the past discussions..think abt. the people who didn't got selected or are in waiting ..few among them are still very keen to join
2. I hope all who are selected they have atleast 5yrs wrok ex and most probably would be having lot of industrial interfaces which will help us in getting the placements in the worse case scenario. :clap:
3. Think abt. the ROI & your personal/professional priorities.. Do some more permutation/combination keeping in mind facts from other B-Schools in India and then take a call.

Guys B+ive and keep a logical approach which will help us in reducing the -ive vibes in this thread Keep interacting with Seniors and other alumni/colleagues/Other sources who will guide us well ! :cheers:

Now when I tried checking the result on site it is giving the same old message "You are not listed in the first waitlist. If you have appeared in either PI and/or VI, Please check this page after May 20, 2011."

Can I conclude that I have been really made offer by IMT and Can I start the exit discussions with my Manager in my office?

Also pls let me know by when we will get the hard-copy of the offer

Hi dear, Going by the past years' trends, there is no wait list information published on the website as the same procedure is followed across all the programs. Around 5th of June, candidates converting from the wait list would be intimated.

Yes !!!... Got Thru Yesterday didn't received any sms but somewhere mind was not getting convinced.
Today at 11am e-mail popped up and yes will definitely join !.. I have been following this Institute and the related thread discussion since last 6 months and know the pros-cons very well .

Now notice period is an issue which I am praying with God that it should also get resolved.

I hope to see most of you there in the campus ..Cheers!!!

Yes rahul, your views are correct.
The program's learning content is good but could not be good enough for placementwise. Still corporates looking for 2 year MBA/PGDM program or 1 year IIM, XLRI program.

My some of EPGDM students also gave feedback regarding placement & other aspect. Like 2 year pdbm students get preferential treatment during placement season.

the epgdm program is like a step baby of IMT.

My advice to all, if someone is join to IMT only for the placement, please do not join. May be you could not get last salary package too. However the program is good for those aspirant who have a current salary 4 to 6 lacs per annum & not more than 5 years of experience. In this case, off campus jobs would be available in case non placemennt. Hope you understand IMT's strategy & able to calculate financial risk including opportunity cost content.

Ankur,

I appreciate efforts made by media communication committee, and I have pasted the threads as it is but if you see the threads related no one exactly clarified the question raised in threads and this is the reason I have posted it hear if fact I also found few points right when checking mandatory discloser where it was mentioned that 15 people of pgdm executive batch was not placed (would request you to check mandatory discloser)

Congratulations to every one for final convert after such a though processes conducted by imt I think ever one deserves a round of applause! Its Rahul here from bbsr 6years of work ex in British Oxygen, GMAT score of 650/CAT 87.xy and Mechanical Engineering from Govt. college. I planning not to enroll for this program as Im thinking that Best is Yet to come for me and I can work on my GMAT/CAT score. I dont want to compare this program with any other top institute program, but, I was going through some of the threads and previous post and came across some strange comments about the program, like final placements faculty field base desertion method of selection etc. I would like to share such a thread here can any one comment on this

1. Hi to all
everybody must be eagerly waiting for joining this course, myself from current batch would like to share my experience

1) IMT is not what it says all about , its not place to fulfill your dream, though it says a lot about itself but industries and corporates knows its value best. Few of the corporate even do not consider it as an MBA college. This course is for the people who are getting 3-4 lacs , not for people like us who left job of 8-9 lacs and were with top companies in India

2) You guys are putting here an investment of 1 year - 7 Lacs Fee + 1 Year salary = 15 Lacs , what will you get out of this, a feeling of disguise in the campus and a whole lot of pain for placement, 20 placed till now even economy is good, there is no corporate relationship building exercise in IMT


3) A dead program coordinator who is good for nothing and dead course, and a placement coordinator who do not know even how to write in english

4) An over crowded campus ,a whole lot of mess in mess

5) Last 3 months you will be left on mercy of GOD , there will be no faculty , no program coordinator, only you and your frustrations will be there

6) For first few months you people will feel unity is strength and blah blah and but believe 60 is nothing in front of 520 ( Strength of regular course)

My advice take it as a break for one year, do not aspire too high, keep working with your profile and do not fool by IMT though it says it is one of top 10 , go on to iimjobs,com site designed for people who look for jobs post MBA and there is not even a single job who recognize IMT as leading B-School

I also got the offer letter for the executive mba. I visited the institute yesterday and was fortunate enough to meet some of current batch guys (playing TT..).

Here are few of the useful info I could gather from their interaction.

1. As far as placements are concerned, they are bleak this year. To say the least, the current batch is just 1 month from completion and placement scenario is disastrous. Only 4 out of the batch of 60 have been placed through campus and rest are on their own.

2. And the future is not bright either as we cannot expect market conditions to improve miraculously in one year.

3. When coming to IMT ghaziabad for this course, just keep in mind that you are here to upgrade your skills and not to seek to any high paying placments.

4. If you wish to change your profile through this course, then forget about it because there are hardly any who are able to do it successfully. So be prepared to go back to same industry you have come from.

5. For IT guys there is more bad news, there are few IT companies who visit for recruitment. (It applies to me too...)

4. When any approaches the institute for recruitment, the intitute pushes for the 2 year program which is their flagship program and executive program always gets a second priority.

5. The positives about this insititute is that they atleast have got the placement cell in place for executive program unlike other institutes like MDI.

6. The course content, infrastructure and faculty are good.

After working for 5-7 years, sitting even one day at home without job can be very frustrating. With current market conditions, you may find yourself seeking jobs all over again just like when you were freshers years ago.
Therefore, my advice to all will be to be prepared for tough times ahead if you join this program.

I hope this will help to clear the picture. Please share more info on this.

Can anyone help me to come out of this dilemma?

Hello Rahul, there was a discussion around the post you quoted earlier as well. Would ask you to go through the previous pages to read the follow up posts. And yes, please substantiate your own apprehensions for having a detailed discussion with other candidates rather than quoting someone's stray remarks. In addition, the link you were trying to put in your post hasn't come by properly. But would advice you to quote the placement reports of 1 year programs rather than the 2 year placements here.

@Senior pls sugget when the wait list will publish. Will this publish in IMT website.

Congratulations to every one for final convert after such a though processes conducted by imt I think ever one deserves a round of applause! Its Rahul here from bbsr 6years of work ex in British Oxygen, GMAT score of 650/CAT 87.xy and Mechanical Engineering from Govt. college. I planning not to enroll for this program as I'm thinking that Best is Yet to come for me and I can work on my GMAT/CAT score. I don't want to compare this program with any other top institute program, but, I was going through some of the threads and previous post and came across some strange comments about the program, like final placements faculty field base desertion method of selection etc. I would like to share such a thread here can any one comment on this

How much is total fees?
How to apply for education loan?
In-staid of DD, can we transfer money using net banking?
List of documents required?

Seniors please throw some light on this..

Hi dear, fee for the program is Rs. 755500 and the payment schedule for our batch is mentioned on the link below
Fee Structure
The same should hold true for your batch well and the new timelines would be updated on the website soon. I am sure in the email you have received the amount to be paid in first installment must be mentioned. RTGS facility is available and the details would be available in your offer mail. Once you have the hard copy of offer letter you can approach the banks for availing education loan. Apart from the offer letter, every bank has different document requirements in which your educational certificates, 3rd party guarantee (if your loan amount exceeds 4.5 lacs) or a monetary surety in lieu of that, are some mandatory ones. IMT falls under the scholar loan category of SBI, but would ask you to explore other banks nearby as well. Otherwise, almost every bank is present in the close vicinity of IMT and in case you can arrange the first installment from your own resources, you can approach the banks and get the loan once you are here in campus.

hello ankur ,
till yesterday i was very upset as i didn't any sms. however just now i recieved an email from imt adcom regarding provisional offer of admission to the Program of Post Graduate Diploma in Management (Executive) of IMT Ghaziabad for the Academic Sessions of 2011-2013.
after this i am more confused as it states academic session 2011-2013 a two year course.
please clarify as no one from office is picking up the phone.
and i am yet to recieve any sms.
others who have received an email pls confirm about the session.

Hi dear, a typographic error from admin that should not have happened in the first place. The program would get over in November 2012 itself.

My Manager is not relieving me before 30th July....

What should I do......

I have resigned today.. My notice period ends on 19th Aug.....

they can release me by 30th july and I have to pay the notice amount for next 15 days.....

I am willing to pay more to get relieved earlier.... but they are not ready....
